Is this anything of interest?

Hi, everyone. Whilst scouring loose stones on Lyme beach this took my interest yesterday (20/04/22) aside from bits of ammonites, etc. I thought it resembled a tooth, so kept it as it seemed a bit too perfect to be random rock. Am I completely wrong and is it worth digging deeper into it? Many thanks for any advice offered.

There are quite a few bits of flint / chert found on Lyme Regis beaches which have washed out of the chalk from elsewhere along the South Coast and then been redistributed by long shore drift. I think this is one of those.

Many thanks for the reply TD. The shape got me interested and thought it was perhaps something better. Will keep on looking :-)
